Analysts anticipate India will have the world’s third largest economy by 2020, behind only the U.S. and China. A modernizing economy driven by one of the youngest and increasingly well-educated work forces in the world positions India well for continued economic growth and diversification. As a result, India is attracting unprecedented levels of foreign investment from around the world and increasing its exports across all industry sectors.
Canada is uniquely well equipped to forge highly impactful economic and business relationships with Indian companies and Fasken has the experience and expertise to facilitate such cross market relationships and transactions.With Canada having more than 1,000,000 Indo-Canadian citizens, an economy that is symbiotic with that of India, and both countries being strong common law democracies, the two countries have the requisite economic and social determinants to become important trade and investment partners.
